This Docker training will give you an introduction to the basic concepts of containerization with Docker and teach you the necessary practices to use containers effectively. You will learn the fundamentals of container orchestration and how to adapt Docker to a multi-node environment using tools such as Swarm or Kubernetes.
This two-day Docker course provides you with all the essential foundations in Docker technologies, notably through practical exercises in building, transporting, and running Docker containers.
Docker training provides a clear understanding of containerization in a context where deployment speed and reliability are essential. This technology is now widely adopted by development and operations teams. It offers significant benefits in application portability, resource optimization, and standardization of working environments.
Unlike virtual machines, Docker containers are lighter and start in just a few seconds. This agility enables companies to improve their development cycles and reduce the time between design and production. Participants in this training will learn how to integrate Docker into a DevOps pipeline and automate many key stages.
Mastering Docker is not just about knowing how to launch a container. A skilled professional must be able to design custom images, manage persistent data, and configure networks tailored to the application’s needs. This training focuses on these skills while introducing the essential concepts of orchestration with Swarm and Kubernetes.
Creating customized images from Dockerfiles is a central topic. Learners will understand how to optimize these images to reduce their size and improve security. Volume and networking management will also prepare the application to run effectively in a multi-container environment.
Each concept covered in this training is supported by concrete examples and hands-on exercises. The goal is to enable participants to apply their new skills immediately in real projects. This methodology fosters both understanding and autonomy—two essential qualities for working effectively with Docker daily.
The orchestration aspect is addressed progressively, starting with Swarm, which is simpler to implement, and then moving on to Kubernetes, now the reference for deploying distributed applications. This introduction helps participants grasp the main principles before moving on to more complex architectures.
Development and production environments are increasingly heterogeneous. Learning Docker provides the ability to run an application consistently, regardless of the underlying system. It also offers flexibility for testing, deploying, and updating services without interrupting operations.
Many companies today are looking for professionals capable of setting up and managing Docker-based infrastructures. This skill is a definite advantage for advancing into senior roles in DevOps, cloud computing, or software architecture.
Yes, it covers the basics progressively and includes hands-on practice.
Do I need programming knowledge?
No, but a general understanding of development or system administration is helpful.
How long is the training?
The training lasts two days, balancing theory and practical work.
Will I learn to use Kubernetes?
An introduction to Kubernetes is included to understand its concepts and role in orchestration.
Is this applicable to the cloud?
Yes, the concepts covered are compatible with major cloud providers such as AWS, Azure, and GCP.
Is there a certification?
A completion badge is awarded at the end of the training, certifying the skills acquired.
